Ello Hydra 64oz Half Gallon Water Jug with Handle and Motivational Time Markers for All Day Hydration, Plastic Reusable Water Bottle with Straw and Locking, Leak Proof Lid, BPA Free

I LOVE this bottle because otherwise I would drink nothing. But, sadly it leaks.

I’ve had this water bottle for 3 years and still love it! My favorite things is that is had two giant handles, a locking lid, and is sooo easy to wash. I like that the straw comes off to wash and the mouthpiece isn’t hard plastic . All my times have rubbed off, but honestly I didn’t care much about them to begin with. This may be a dealbreaker for you if you like ice cold water since this version isn’t insulated but if you prefer room temp like me, it’s perfect. I also usually sit mine in the seat next to me in the car since it does not fit in the cup holders. I’ve seen reviews about leaking and have never dealt with that as long as I’ve had this bottle unless I put the cap on wrong. If it’s not tight enough it could leak, but this thing is durable and goes everywhere with me and gets tossed in my car, on my couch, work, walking, the bed, and mine does not leak. The cap also locks closed which I like too! Overall great water bottle!

I really like the size! The markers on the outside help me to keep track of how much I drink. The handle on the outside keeps the jug from slipping. The downside is the protective cap button doesn't release the cap consistently.

I have been cycling through water bottles for months now, one after the other, looking for my Perfect Bottle. I have learned I need a few things: A handle that doesn't protrude (they keep getting broken), a lid that pops open and doesn't need to be unscrewed, a straw I can use, an open airway that allows me to drink freely, a handle separate from the body of the bottle. These sound like fairly standard things for a water bottle to have but gosh darn it, I've had the hardest time checking off that list! (I also started to use a bottle carrier that helps keep my drinks colder longer, so that started to factor in- it's kind of a bag type of carrier with an insulated body. It works to keep my ice cubes from melting and diluting my tea!) I don't like refilling all the time, I drink a LOT of liquid, so I want 64oz minimum in size. With all these features in mind, I have been on a long, expensive road going through bottles to fit my criteria. I finally found everything I have been looking for in this bottle! I had forgotten what drinking from an unrestricted straw way was like! The last bottle -and the one I have used longest- for some reason has restricted airways so I have to keep unscrewing the lid to be able to drink. I think it's a suction thing but seems a bit odd. That old one was a Zulu brand I found in Walmart. It had a handle on top to grab but it broke in about a week. I could still use it, it was just broken and it didn't take the super glue at all. It protrudes off the back so doesn't fit into the carrier bag well. It also has a hollow handle that is rather hard to clean. This new one, the Ello Hydra, fixes all those problems! This one has a hinged and collapsible handle that tucks away flush to the bottle top when not in use. I have experienced no air issues, so I can just /drink/ when I want to which should not be a novel idea but has become that. The handle does not seem hollow meaning no liquid gets slimy in places a brush can't reach, which also means I may not need to clean with bleach now. The spout is still a soft silicone, which I like. The body of the bottle is smooth and rounded, which I like. The color matches my carrier bag extremely well which was not necessary, but I like it. I shouldn't be this enthusiastic about a water bottle, but I am! It's perfect! The long nightmare is over! This is the one to get! The 'motivational' time markers are just markers, there's no motivational sayings with them which many others have. I don't need motivation to drink and in a carrier, I can't see them anyway. If you /need/ motivational sayings on your bottle, then this is probably not the bottle for you unless you want to Sharpie on your own phrases (an idea that has some merit). I am better than good with not having them. I am over the moon with this Ello Hydra bottle! Stupid, yes, but happy! :D

I love it because I stay motivated all day drinking water. I had bought one before, but it broke after lasting a long time. I really loved its quality, and this is my favorite color.

I wanted to live this water bottle. It’s exactly the size I need. It’s a pretty purple color. It’s easy clean as I can actually get my hand all the way in to the bottle. The problem is, when I put the lid on it’s always in a left handed hold position instead of a right hand. The flip cover no longer flips, I have to press release and lift it it up. It spits water when I open it from the straw. It leaked around 20 oz into my bag.

This has been the most marvelous asset to be able to quickly adjust the lid to accommodate whichever hand I plan to be drinking with, and having plenty of water on hand as I do my various projects. I build a lot of sculptures create moles and sometimes just go outside to do my painting, so it's incredibly useful to have all the water I need on hand. In this particular case having the straw go all the way to the bottom of the unit keeps me from having to throw my head back and of course disorient everything from the work I'm doing I can just suck it right up! I also enjoy that while the lip piece is extremely comfortable, the nice clear cover takes care of keeping everything clean no matter where I am and what kind of strange project I'm working on with my hands being less than optimally clean so much at the time.

It's cheaply priced so of course it's a cheap water bottle. It leaks if knocked over, the lid doesn't close all the time, etc. one time I filled it up and the top just gave out. Oh and the top mouth piece is made of like a weird rubber so if you have anything on your lips it rubs off and is hard to get off (lip gloss, food, etc.) I had it for about 6 months before I bought a better one.

Great sized bottle, and drink system from Ello. Lid is difficult to thread onto plastic bottle. If the bottle goes on it’s side or upside down, it fills the lid and then leaks out the side - not ideal if you want to put the bottle in your bag or for when you’re drinking. another thing I’ve noticed that when it manages to thread correctly the handle is on the left side - not functional. Wouldn’t recommend this product. Better off getting the metal 64oz, which is what I’ll get to replace this.

Es muy bonito y útil para tomar el agua personal del día y se notan los materiales de calidad. Hay que tomar en cuenta que es de 1.9L de capacidad, si es grande pero lo vale. Había leído comentarios que se derramaba el agua al voltearlo y dudé en comprarlo por esa razón, pero mi caso no fue así, lo he volteado por completo y no hay fugas de agua. Lo recomiendo mucho!

الشفط منه مره ممتاز و يروي مو يتعب وقت الشفط الجوده قويه لكن فيه عيب بطباعه على العلبه جاني مشخوط او ممسوحه لكن كمجمل العلبه ممتازه وجيده ومتينه

It’s a good water bottle to have at home, I like that it’s big so I don’t have to fill it often. It does leak when you have it laying on its side. And sometimes the lid doesn’t close properly but that’s probably just me. Overall quality it good and would buy it again.

Buen producto, el plástico de la botella no es de la mejor calidad por eso es que a muchos se les sale el agua. Hay que checar que esté bien alineada la tapa con la botella al momento de cerrarla. Eso pasa mucho cuando no es de la mejor calidad el plástico de la botella, lo uso para estar en casa o donde sepa que va a estar estática la botella. No es mal producto solo podría mejorar el plástico. No me arrepiento de hacer esta compra. Lo encontré con descuento, para concluir; botella muy bonita, funcional excelente para trabajar o tenerla en casa o en un lugar donde sepas que va a estar estática. La compré cuando estaba en oferta, les recomiendo que SOLO la compren cuando esté en oferta.
